Bugalug

Here is a budget friendly find from the Boom Boom Room Baby Shower event I attended a few weeks back. I am loving the Bugalug product line.

Above is just a sampling of the very adorable hair clips available from Bugalug. With two young girls, our house has seen a LOT of hair clips- in all their many varieties.

I am a big fan of the way ribbon covered "alligator clamp" clips look, but in the past I have been disappointed by the fact that they could always find a way to escape my child's hair. This is doubly frustrating, because the ribbon clips tend to cost much more than the traditional metal hair clips out there.

Bugalug's clips have a small strip of silicone added to the interior that allow them to actually grip the hair, and stay in place. Both of my girls have worn the Bugalug clips over the last few weeks, and we have yet to have one of these go MIA. Check out all of the color offerings.

These ribbon headbands do not have any silicone strips added to the inside, but they manage to stay in place thanks to an adjustable toggle. The headband can be adjusted to be adult-size too if you want to steal your child's accessories from time to time like I do. I currently have my eye on the black velvet headband from the fancy pants collection.

Bugalug Barrettes cost $4 each, and the headbands run $8. You can purchase them directly from www.bugalugbaby.com. Right now all you lucky citrus readers get 10% with the coupon code CITRUS10 at checkout. This coupon will expire 6/30.

I started putting barrettes in my daughter's hair when she was only four or five months old (in an attempt to preempt the gender question) and have since accumulated and missplaced many many barrettes. These are very cute, and they stay in place?! What a great idea.melissagmclaughlin@gmail.com

These are perfect for my girlfriend's little ones. Masses of hair on five little girls! She is always trying to tame the curls. I might just have to help out! 4th of July is appropriate for Auntie gifts, right?!?!

Hi Theresa-this is Amanda Winn. I don't know if you remember me, it's been a long time! Kaedi Fehlberg told me about your blog and I have really enjoyed reading it. You are a crafty lady! =)Thanks for all the work you put into do this.avolcansek@yahoo.com

My mother's hobby is also to steal my hair accessories, just like what you do. LOL :) By the way, those hair accessories are very cute. I also found No Slippy Hair Clippy, a place where I can shop more beautiful hair clips and headbands . Hair accessories there really fits to my taste.:)
